Very good reference regarding Noether's theorem. If any of my speculation is correct, and Don Smith was for real, and we can build and demonstrate high-power overunity devices, then theorists are going to have first a very bad day and a very hard time facing the fact that they have missed something so major for over 100 years, but then they are going to have a field day trying to explain it. I think Noether's theorem is a good place to start.
However, I don't think devices of this type violate conservation of energy. No new energy is created. What we are actually doing is reversing cause and effect in time, and borrowing the energy from the universe first before dissipating it in a load. If this sounds strange, you haven't studied quantum mechanics. I'm sure most of the researchers here are familiar with the very wacky and far-out things that are already accepted science. Things like quantum vacuum fluctuations and virtual particles, and spooky action at a distance. This isn't any stranger than all that. At the quantum level, the laws of physics actually don't care which way time is moving, and physicists over the years have had a hard time trying to explain why it is that we can only remember the past but not the future. The only good answer I'm aware of is that "forward time" seems to be the direction in which entropy increases. However, overunity devices of this type most certainly do violate the second law of thermodynamics, and generate what Bearden would call "giant negentropy", that is, meaningful entropy decrease at a macroscopic level and not just things like quantum fluctuations. The "power source" for the device is the vacuum itself, and the negentropy of the source dipole. It just so happens that nature has provided this convenient phase conjugation mechanism to capture and convert it into macroscopic energy in an electrical form, but no new energy gets created and thus the first law of thermodynamics, and Noether's theorem, are still completely valid. At least this is my view based on what I know up to the present time.
The only other theoretical background I have been able to find that seems relevant is the Feynman-Wheeler absorber theory. I'll quote from the Wikipedia article:
The absorber theory brings into play the notion of "advanced waves", which arrive at their destination before they were sent. Read the Wiki article, it will make this clearer. Note that this is not completely accepted physics, but with Feynman's name on it, most reputable physicists will at least take it seriously. I think this is at least a basis to start building a new, more complete theory of electrodynamics, one which can account for the electrical phase-conjugation phenomenon. I'll insert my "I am not a physicist" disclaimer, because I am not one, but I am an engineer and know enough higher math to be dangerous. Fortunately, I don't consider it necessary to have a fully fleshed-out theory in order to build and demonstrate working devices.

The Wheeler–Feynman absorber theory (also called the Wheeler–Feynman time-symmetric theory), named after its originators, the physicists Richard Feynman and John Archibald Wheeler, is an interpretation of electrodynamics derived from the assumption that the solutions of the electromagnetic field equations must be invariant under time-reversal transformation, as are the field equations themselves. Indeed, there is no apparent reason for the time-reversal symmetry breaking, which singles out a preferential time direction and thus makes a distinction between past and future. A time-reversal invariant theory is more logical and elegant.
